If you have fractured a piece of tooth off, keep the section of the tooth if you can.
Sometimes it is possible to re-attach the fractured piece of tooth.
The tooth may be sensitive to cold, air, heat or sweets.
If the tooth was fractured from an accident of some sort it is not uncommon for the tooth to be slightly more mobile than normal.
This can be caused from a temporary loosening of the supporting tooth ligament, known as the periodontal ligament.
It is best to see a dentist, leave the tooth alone and resist from wiggling.

Report
I first visited Dr Skvorak, DMD at Pear Tree Dentistry, in Westbrook, Maine, when I had questions about potential dental work needed. Dr. Skvorak explained my options and gave his recommendations. A few expertly crafted crowns later,
I can attest that he is one of the best. As Dr. Skvorak worked on my teeth, he showed me how he designed and crafted my new crown. I was impressed at the process and skill. He invests in his team and in the newest technology, so that his patients benefit from the best available materials, products and knowledgeable staff. My teeth feel and look great!
I love visiting my favorite dental hygienist, Danielle. Throughout the challenging covid time period she made me feel safe & comfortable at cleanings. She is friendly, cheerful & accommodating. She is thorough in her cleanings and teaches me something new each time. In her conversation she provides tips on daily routines, such as proper flossing that make our efforts more effective, resulting in less tartar on the next visit. She shares interesting facts from the continuing education seminars that she attends expanding my knowledge. (“expanding floss” you have got to try that too!)
From the moment that you walk in the door the entire team makes you feel welcomed and comfortable. Look no further for the best dental office in your area
